Stink bug control for Lafayette, part of a still expanding population moving through Front Range communities that grew up around older farm towns like it.
Call (844) 924-1337A Denver Post reporter singled out Mary Foote Miller in December 1902 as the only woman in the country known to hold a bank presidency, a distinction earned barely more than a decade after Lafayette's own 1889 incorporation, and the town has kept building steadily in the century plus since. Brown marmorated stink bugs, though, are a genuinely new arrival to that long timeline. Each fall, this insect gathers on whichever exterior wall gets the most sun, working through tiny cracks and gaps into the structure to spend winter inside, the same overwintering habit that's made it a fixture in homes across the eastern half of the country for more than ten years now, and Colorado State University's Agricultural Biology program has only recently mapped Boulder County's Front Range communities, Lafayette included, squarely inside its still expanding range.
The range is still filling in, not settled, which means Lafayette residents are facing something new rather than a predictable seasonal event, and there's every reason to expect the local population to keep climbing for years before it levels off.

Sealing gaps around windows, doors, siding, and utility lines is the main way to reduce how many get inside, especially heading into fall. A provider can identify entry points you might not spot on your own and treat the exterior accordingly.
Yes, professional treatment focused on exterior entry points can meaningfully reduce how many stink bugs get inside. It generally works best when paired with sealing work rather than indoor pesticide alone.
For stink bugs already inside, removal, like vacuuming or capturing them, rather than crushing them, is generally recommended to avoid the odor. Addressing exterior entry points is the more effective long-term fix, which a provider can help with.
The approach is largely the same as general stink bug control, focused on sealing entry points and exterior treatment, since this is the most common species found seeking shelter in homes. A provider can confirm what you're dealing with and recommend next steps.
